A game able to earn a special place in your heart by smartly adopting almost all of your personal taste in terms of gameplay,action scenes, dialogue, characters and a... god f#cking good... soundtrack ? No ?! But i had, and that game is called Devil May Cry 3. It's a game that did what 99% of action games (including Bayonetta) failed and still failing miserably to make: it estabilishes a strong connection with the player. I love heavy metal/hard rock so Dante's style of an arrogant and rebel teenager with a hell of a good taste in music fits my taste like a glove. He's also badass and has amusing quotes. Even the jokes and funny situations on this games have good taste and will actually make you laugh. The action scenes are breathtaking and totally awesome to see. The other scenes have interesting dialogue and some character's comments are definitely worth of paying attention to. Great cutscenes and great characters but it doesn't ends there: the gameplay is superb. Fight like a maniac by mixing dual-wielding gunslinger with swords. Perform crazy and cool movements like walking on the walls, killingspree while riding on an enemy, make a "shower of bullets" or a "ceiling fan" movement with your sword - it doesn't appears to make any sense for you here, but that's how i can describe it . Before you ask, yes, it's crazy and cool as you can imagine it by reading this review. All this fun plated in a badass soundtrack, i couldn't ask for more. By defeating bosses, you unlock new weapons and you can also be a demon for a short period of time (recommended for boss battles). It's possible to buy new items, combos, maximaze some aspect of your guns or weapons and even change "styles" of gameplay. So there is definitely a RPG vein right there: you prefer using guns for combat, make upgrade for your guns by collecting red orbs and then switch for "gunslinger" as your style; or you may want to invest more on defense, in that situation you may want to choose the "trickster" style of combat. The difficulty is very well-balanced: the tough guys will have tough battles, bosses will have good challenge and ordinary enemies will have some middle challenge (i played it in normal difficulty). If there was something to complain about the game it would be definately be the scenarios. Most of the scenarios are excessively dark and with lack of detail. Some are uncreative or rather boring. Also too much litte variety in combat soundtrack and the story isn't much deep as it could have been. However, i can't deny the incredibly satisfying and remarkable experience i had with this game. A worthy deserving of a 9,5 score. I will raise it to 10 instead of giving it a 9 because i love this game so much that i strongly recommend it even after admiting its (small) flaws. 10 does not means that DMC 3 is perfect, far from it. It means that this is an experience that you cannot miss.…Expand

He has his trademark moves from his boss battles, and a couple of new ones. He is highly aggressive - though he does have evasion in the form of teleportation. The thing that's best about him is that he does feel very different to Dante, it means you have to play differently, and master him separately. But here's my DMC3 review: What a brilliant game! Extremely hard, enemies coming from all over the place, slick 60 frames per second, tonnes of boss battles. The system is fair and responsive, everything is programmed correctly to make a fine experience. It has six fighting styles, so you choose one at the start of each mission. Trickster is for dodging, royalguard is for intercepting and stopping attacks, swordmaster is for showing off, gunslinger is for making guns more stylish at a distance, quicksilver is for slowing down time, and doppelganger means you can split into 2! Combine this with the fact that you have 5 swords and 5 guns - and you can take 2 of each of those into each mission, and you have... 600 combinations in total! Keep experimenting and you will never get bored. This is one of the best games on the PS2 and stands up today.…Expand

They are all good in their own way, and can be improved by leveling up, when leveling up, you learn new combos and moves. The bosses in this game are incredible! The Vergil fights are some of my favorites, and the Jester fights were just plain fun. The OST in this game was awesome, and the weapons were fantastic. A guitar scythe that summons bats!

A great game that most should give a try.Vergil has few moves and no cut scenes of his own except for the beginning, making it seem that the developers just tacked it on for more value. Dante is even cockier but some of his lines just seem so tacky. Still very awesome but the plot wasn't that thick or developed. Definitely worth a buy.

Outstanding to be a reharsed edition. It fixes original's problems (in particular difficulty) and the chance to play like Vergil is better though he has limited gun move. The inclusion of palace of blood is very good. Other issues, i think, are to uncover in a very uncoherent and apparent lack of variety playing Vergil mode. 9/10 no major faults.

+ Badass DT design. Dante has different appearances with different devil arms in DT mode. I say my favourite are the guitar and gauntlet.
- I don't like the rock music... is that rock?
- Some bosses are like puzzles, such as the M4 boss and M12 boss. It is about doing exact thing at exact moment, especially in DMD. If you don't do that, it is just a pain in the ass and waste of time.
- Some levels don't have intense and compact fighting.
- The hold button design. It is very unintuitive and very hard to use. Like the Gunslinger style. How am I supposed to hold style button while attacking?
- The fear system is a little... Basically you have to kill enemies together in DMD otherwise they will start to fear and DT, which gives them triple armor which means triple hit points. And DMD enemies have natural twice armor that makes a DT enemy in DMD has six times of health... If you ever try to kill a DT sloth in DMD you know what I mean. It can be tedious, it also makes Sword Master one of the best styles you can use. The True Rising Dragon deals mass damage somehow nullifies the DT armor, and the Whirlwind is perfect for enemy controlling. And unless you are super good, you must use DT explosion constantly, which means most times you are in human form which kinda wastes the cool DT design, unless you wear the infinite DT costume. I just think triple health is a little cheap and forced to kill enemies together instead of able to choose to kill them one by one is not that good.…Expand

To think DMC 3 would not only be a better game over DMC 2 but also DMC 1 makes this one of the best comebacks in a series I have ever seen. Not just even a comeback but also as a prequel done right. In a day and age of gaming where series that focus so hard on plot, characters and world building a prequel usually undermines the entries and fail to stand out as well. Devil May Cry 3 I'dTo think DMC 3 would not only be a better game over DMC 2 but also DMC 1 makes this one of the best comebacks in a series I have ever seen. Not just even a comeback but also as a prequel done right. In a day and age of gaming where series that focus so hard on plot, characters and world building a prequel usually undermines the entries and fail to stand out as well. Devil May Cry 3 I'd argue does this so well on top of delivering great gameplay and moments, that it deserves recognition and say it beats DMC 1 barely and towers over 2.

Dante's character "returns" with a goofy and B/C-script dialogue that is clearly all about killing demons and being the rebellious, bringing back what was the complete opposite of what DMC2 tried to do. While the plot, the characters or themes aren't groundbreaking and cliche fisted to high hell, it delivers the combat front and center without a second thought. Killing enemies compared to DMC1 was like added crack to a much needed rush for players as Dante can be far more responsive and adapted in fighting demons. Combos are far more satisfying to pull off, the different moves with weapons and different variety of them allows far more creativity for players to take down enemies.

The bosses and enemies are quite good. Perhaps its because of the writing being so generic and cliche, but the bosses resonated more for me then even bosses in DMC1 and was a blast to play for most of them. I like Cerberus, Geryon, Beowulf, Nevan, all fights with Vergil and Jester. Speaking of Vergil, you play as him in this version. Considering the original version was hard for many players and Capcom was getting flak for it, giving Vergil as a playable character was genius. Sure he has no real story in the game from his playthrough, but his combos with his three weapons and summoned swords are fantastic. He really feels like a cooler more reserved fighter to Dante's hot headed nature.

The unlocks, dizzying Bloody Palace mode, Turbo mode, and other quirks that were thrown in really impressed me as a kid and still do as an adult. It's not perfect however, the use of the rank system rears its head in DMC3 similar to 2. It can really hurt a player's sense of accomplishment when they take damage or use items and come out with D's or C's. Fortunately you can replay missions and become more accustomed to the controls and enemy attacks as you do. The difficulty is quite punishing. Even on normal the game can be daunting for new players for their first time through. Hard gets worse, Very Hard goes off the rails and Dante Must Die is insanity to the extreme. If you want a challenging game that demands 110% from your skill level, then this will be your game, but for commoners this will be a deterrent. The styles implemented are good, but the constant need to switch them at statues of divinity is very taxing on patience.

Despite the issues the game has, it is an excellent prequel game that revives the series and punches the lights out of its past entries with stylish demon slaying grace. Match with a industrial rock soundtrack and theme song and you have a wet dream of demon slaying come to life. While it lacks far less of the serious tones the previous 2 games have, at least the ending of 3 still solidifies Dante as the demon hunter fans of the first game have come to know and love. Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition is one of the best games I have ever played despite the issues and is the best prequel game (for me) of all time.…Expand

I was originally expecting virgil to be some kind of token unlock character, either completely overpowered or completely useless, but he's actually a balanced character to play, and even more surprisingly, he's got some serious depth to his combat. The **** tier level design is forgiven this time with the addition of the bloody palace, a place where you can go and endlessly beat up hordes of demons without all that terrible platforming and crappy puzzle solving.

Moving on the story is laughable. im seroious, ive never played a game with a story this bad.
